Future Changes To National Sides
The Commission of the European Communities issued a recommendation on 19 December 2008, a common guideline for the national sides and the issuance of euro coins intended for circulation. One section of this recommendation stipulates that:
- Article 4. Design of the national sides:
- "The national side of the euro coins intended for circulation should bear the 12 European stars that should fully surround the national design, including the year mark and the indication of the issuing Member State's name. The European stars should be depicted as on the European flag."
Since Luxembourgish low denominations euro coins place the indication of the member's name instead of the 12 stars of the union, a new design on the Luxembourgish euro coins is expected in the near future to comply with these new guidelines, although nothing officially has been announced yet.
